SSG May Be Sunsetting SOME or all Lifetime Accounts
Just an FYI - I don't know if you've seen this or covered it, but it appears that SSG has closed quite a few lifetime sub accounts.
There are multiple threads in the forums, reddit, else…
Depending whether you want to classify this as MMO or Not So MMO (I don't care who calls it what), there's still Guild Wars 1

It's hard for me to go back to click-to-target (or tab target) MMOs like WoW, LotrO, etc (and why I don't play FF14 on any platform). Elder Scrolls Online, TERA (buggy game on any platform), most of your multiplayer (40-100 player) survival games, …

I pretty much skipped EverQuest (played UO then went on to other games), but for the people that didn't - was there much of an outcry by existing players when SOE included the base game + all previous expansions with each new expansion?
As I rec…

Uhhh. I don't see a $29.99 option for those who already possess the core game. Shame. They must really be hard up for the cash.
It looks like they are following the Everquest model - basically when you buy the newest…

Originally posted by DMKano While smaller dev teams are becoming more popular - BUT they cannot produce AAA MMORPG games.
That's the modern MMORPG conundrum - gamers want indie dev studios to produce AAA graphics and gameplay, with AAA hosting and…
having said that, not all maps are creating equal - people congregate on certain maps making them fill up easy while the majority of the rest of the world is avoided and seems empty - just like most other MMOs.. with this tech each "server" can hos…

It's a good way to get around mergers.

I used to tank and dps as frost DW, but they did that with two 1H weapons. They never had the equivalent to the Warrior's Titan Grip, which the author may be confusing.,
Originally they could tank in frost (spec and presence) with 1 2H or 2 1H,…
I loved Frost DK (DW) tanking up until they took it away and made Blood the only DK tanking spec.
Having gone through all of the tank classes, I still prefer playing a pally tank, though to caveat I also have an active warrior tank and a shaman …

The problem is an endgame built around raiding for gear. Everything else is just details. Any proposals to change it amount to rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic: the end re…
yeah, I'd prefer to see any of the skins that you have to buy in the gem store work like the heritage armor from the HoM, even if it means they cost a bit more..
Technically, WoW isn't truly seamless, it's just got really big zones...
Zones (each on a separate server):
